Change will always be around, and that is probably for the best. If it wasn't for change, then life might get sort of stale and...all about routine. One of my pals is moving out East to attend Duke for a year. His wife will also be joining him on their new adventure. Now it isn't permanent, in theory they will be coming back to the Twin Cities sometime in May 2011. Throughout their whole process of decision making, I think some role reversal has happened.
I love making generalizations, it's one thing I take great pride in. You can offend large numbers of people, and say "you know what I mean" and in most cases they "get it" because you aren't directing it at anyone. So, my generalization is that in many relationships, I think the guy plays the "emotional rock." Whether it's a societal perception or simply the way things are, doesn't matter...I think I am right. He has probably played the emotional rock for her the past few years, but I am betting that things have been different on the homefront the past few months. Both of them have probaly been on a roller coaster of feelings since their school decisions became more important. But, I am betting that she has tried to be the rock for him lately and I think that swap has shown them different sides of each other that maybe were not always ovbious.

I love my condo, most people that know me get that and think I talk too much about it. But I am starting to the dirty underbelly of parts of my association. The association is strong, but the complex is old and there is not much I can do about that. Because of it's age, it looks like something are starting to need replacement that I never would have thought of before. I think we have plenty of finances to take care of things, but it's something I had not considered before.
